Everything was handled efficiently and courteously. The trip itself was brilliant and the pilot was friendly and informative. We received a safety briefing before we left the office and this was reinforced by the pilot - gave us a great sense of security. I'm not sure if the pilot did this deliberately but each time I was sure we were about to slap against the peak he lifted the helicopter a bit more and we safely swept past and on taking off to return he sailed over what appeared to me to be a precipice and, while one girl in front screamed I at least saved my dignity by clining to my husband for dear life - for all the good that would have done me. Brilliant experience and would love to do it again.

Everything Travel Group Review

The Remarkables mountain is one of the most dramatic and stunning views around. From the landing point you can see for miles in a 360 degree view. Look back accross Queenstown to the houses and famous golf course - Kelvin Heights or the other way to some spectacular remote scenery, and the beautiful Lake Wakatipu. It's hard to believe you are only a short flight away from Queenstown.

Looking at doing a helicopter flight 3rd of Sept. Without the help of a crystal ball, would you say regarding the weather a morning or an afternoon flight is generally better? Cheers

Comments

Thank you for your question about a helicopter flight - The Remarkables. It is advised to choose a morning departure, as this allows the operator to reschedule you to an afternoon departure incase the weather is bad.

Thank you so much for your enquiry. Yes, we can certainly arrange a pick up from your accommodation. Usually, the Remarkables Helicopter Flight is with other passengers but if you are interested in a private charter we can arrange this for you.

Which part of the day is the weather better, morning or afternoon in January usually

Comments

The weather in January is usually great for both morning and afternoon. Occasionally we get some low lying clouds in the morning, which usually clear by the afternoon. I would recommend booking a flight for the first day of your trip as this means you are able to reschedule if it is cancelled due to bad weather conditions. If there is only one day that you can book the flight, then definitely book the morning slot as you could then hopefully reschedule for the afternoon if the weather wasn't suitable.

Comment by: Rajendra timalsina on 22nd Sep 18 at 23:11

Hello, They do not inform us of the max weight of the helicopter but they do have a rough one. We need to inform them of your weights at the time of booking and they will arrange the helicopters accordingly. There is no real max weight limit for an individual they will just put less people on the heli. They fly up to the top of the Remarkables mountain which is 2319m.

Heya, Yes the helicopter can take 6 people. We will need the weights of the 6 people however as there is a weight limit. They do not tell us the weight limit as there are so many variables you just need to send in your weights and we can confirm whether its possible (it normally always is). Yes the price shown now is available in October.. just click book now, enter your date and it will confirm the price.

Hi,
Two questions:

2. will there be a snow landing in the last week of September?
Thanks,

Comments

Children under 4 years of age travel for free on the helicopter flights in Queenstown so you would need to pay for 3 people and your 1 year old travels for free.  There is usually plenty of snow around in September but there are no guarantees. If you want to guarantee a snow landing at any time of the year then I suggest booking the Alpine Snow Landing flight which has a special at 3pm each day also.

Yes kids 4 years and under are free of charge on the Remarkables helicopter flight in Queenstown so you would just need to pay for 3 adults. If you're not sure on dates I suggest booking for one of your first days in town so that if the weather is no good for flying you can reschedule to another day. If you book now and then decide later than you want to change the date then you can just contact us and we'll do it for you free of charge.

I have just spoken with the helicopter pilots and your partner is certainly able to do a scenic flight in Queenstown with his leg in a cast. The back door of the helicopter is quite wide and the pilot will take care helping your partner in and out of the heli. What date are you thinking of booking for?

operate late october ?- we will be in Queenstown 22-29 October .

Thanks

Hi Cleo. The Remarkables helicopter flight from Queenstown operates all year however it only lands in the snow when there is snow around during the winter months. In late October it is possible there will be snow on mountains but there are no guarantees unfortunately. If you do want a snow landing for sure then you can book the Cecil Peak snow landing helicopter flight that guarantees a snow landing all year.

Comments

Hi Jessica. The helicopters that fly the scenic flights in Queenstown can only hold up to 6 passengers so if you have a group of 7 then we would have to spread you out between 2 helicopters. This is not a problem but it just means that you wont all be in the same helicopter.

Hi Bryony. The 3.30pm Remarkables special helicopter flight in Queenstown is exactly the same as the normal flight however it's cheaper at 3.30pm as this is a quiet time of the day for the helicopters and by offering a special the helicopter can get some use. Yes, the helicopter flights are weather dependent so if the weather is no good for flying and you are unable to reschedule then you are eligible for a full refund.

To Whom It May Concern,

I'm enquiring about your Helicopter flight up to The Remarkables. I am looking at possibly booking a flight for June 7th, 2014, as we're going to be in Queenstown that weekend. With your 3.30pm special, is that $135 per person? How many people are you able to accommodate? I'm hoping for either 3 or 4 people.
Also, do you know if there will be much snow that early in June?

Kind regards,

Jaimee Cutting

Comments

Hi Jaimee. Yes there is currently space for your group of 4 people on the Remarkables helicopter flight in Queenstown on the 7th June. The cost is $135 per person and the helicopter can take up to 6 passengers (depending on weights and heights etc). The weather is pretty changeable that time of the year and we normally get a snow dump early in the season so there is a good chance that there will be a fair bit of snow around but no guarantees. Town will be starting to fill up with the annual winter festival starting on the 20th June so I would recommend booking in advance. If you book via our website you are welcome to change your dates without any additional cost as long as you do it at least 48 hours prior to your flight departing.

Hi there Nic. Yes, if you book a scenic helicopter flight in Queenstown then you are more than welcome to bring a couple of bottles of beer or a bottle of champagne with you in a small bag. You won't be able to consume these in the helicopter but once you land on top of the Remarkbales mountain and disembark the helicopter you will have some time to take in the views and celebrate with a drink if you choose.

I am enquiring about a helicopter flight from Queenstown to any nearby glacier and be dropped off for around 4 hours (my partner and I) with a picnic basket and drinks (supplied by ourselves or you) and picked back up by helicopter and returned to Queenstown. Its my partners 40th birthday and I want to do something private and special. Don't mind if we share the helicopter but just not the private time on glacier. Any suggestions and price for charter? Looking at booking on 18th October 2013.

Comments

Hi Angie,

There is a glacier landing heli experience however this only allows 10 minutes on the glacier and not enough time for you to have a picnic. If you wanted to do this you would need to charter the helicopter and then you could have 30-45 minutes on the glacier as the pilot will then shut down the machine between landing and take off. The cost for this is $1700 and you would have the helicopter (6 seats) to yourself. If this is of interest let us know and we can book for you.

Thanks,

Nigel

Hi Nicole. The 3.30pm Remarkables helicopter special is $135 per person and is available every day of the week all year. It is $90 cheaper than the standard price and is exactly the same flight and includes a landing on top of the Remarkables mountain range. It does often get booked up as it is very popular so I recommend booking sooner rather than later.

Dear Sir

What is the difference between the 3.30 pm flight, heli flight and the private charter private flight for six?
If I book private charter heli flight for six, can I set at any time?
Annie

Comments

Hi Annie. The 3.30pm Special is exactly the same helicopter flight in Queenstown except that it operates at 3.30pm at a cheaper price. The Private Charter is the same flight also, it is just a cheaper option if you have a small group or if you wish to do a private flight with no other customers on board. The helicopters take u to 6 passengers so if there are 4 or more of you then it is cheaper to book a Private Charter flight than paying individually for single seats. If you book the Private Charter then you can request a preferred departure time.

Hi Lee,

Yes we can arrange large group bookings. The helicopter company you are looking at are specialists in moving large volumes of people so 17 in the morning will be no problem as they have many helicopters. The key to getting this organised will be booking in advance.

Comments

Hi Emma. Yes that is exactly right. If you book the Remarkables helicopter flight in Queenstown or any other activity and it is cancelled by the activity operator due to bad weather or for any other reason then you can reschedule to another day or receive a full refund from us.

Hi I was just wondering if there is a minimum number of passangers as I want to book a flight for my partner but don't want to go on the flight myself?

Comments

Hi Rebecca. Yes minimum numbers do apply for the helicopter to run for the Remarkalbes flight. It only requires 2 to confirm the trip though so it is still worth booking as more often than not there will be at least 2 people booked. If not you are entitled to a full refund or the option to reschedule for another day.

Hi, im flying into queenstown airport at 2.45pm on the 4/6/12, JQ223. Im interested in the 330pm special for 2 people.

Will it land on the ground during the helicopter flight And will the price include a shuttle bus back to queenstown ?

Comments

Hi Jeff. Yes the Remarkables Helicopter flight in Queenstown does include a landing on the Remarkables mountain range where you can get out of the heli and take pictures. During winter this is usually a snow landing! You will be dropped back into town or your hotel after your flight.

Hi
Does the private charter include the same tour as buying for one person? Does it include the Remarkables landing. We are coming to Queenstown late July and we have six people so am really interested in this package.
Thanks
Karen

Hi Karen, yes the private charter does do the same tour it just means you are paying for the whole helicopter rather than just one seat. If there are 6 of you wanting to do this trip then it is obviously far better to book the charter flight rather than booking your seats individually.

I am wanting to buy two Helecopter rides for a gift, we are likely to use them in June.
Do I need to purchase the tickets or can i buy a gift voucher of say $300 to go towards the flight

Comments

Hi Sue. You can buy a Gift Voucher for a certain dollar amount that the recipient can use towards the cost of any activities listed on our websites or you can purchase an open dated Gift Voucher for a specific activity. If you wish to purchase a specific dollar value then go the the Gift Voucher page on our site. If you prefer to book an open dated voucher for 2 helicopter flights then click "Book Now" on the Remarkables Helicopter Flight page and then select "I want this to be an open dated gift voucher".
